little more money.-Exchdnge.

FARM NOTES.

The cultivator is a great factor IN corn
culture, and should be used as often as pos
sible.
Miner CountS, (Dak.) crop reports are on
top of all former Secords in advancement
and prospect.
1t has recently been discovered that the
hard winter has killed all the blackberry
bushes SO extensively cultivated at Della
ware, Iowa.
Oats in Atchison County, Kan, are re-
ported not doing well on account Of the re-
cent cold weather. Wheat is looking well
and fruit of all kinds promises well
Fruitgrowers report the prospect for the
largest crop Of all kinds for years This,
in connection with mammoth crop CT
grain and stock. will make every thing and
every body boom in substantial way

The crop outlook in Sphinx, Brown, Day,
Kingsbury and Beadle Counties, Dakota,
is reported to be the most favorable vet
known. The farmers have finished seeding
and wheat is far enough out Of the ground
to make q good showing
Never before were the prospects for large
crops more fiattering, and if every thing
progresses favorably from now OIL until
harvest Sacramento County will have a
larger yield than that Of any preceding
season.-Catfornid Exchange.
Wheat in Dakota this spring is, generally
speaking, in fine condition aud the crop
prospects are excellent. or over twenty
counties from which reports have been re-
ceived twelve show an increase acreage
over 1856 Only one countie (Beadlc) re-
ports decrease, and in that barley, rye
and oats have been largely increased, the
latter by fifty per cent.
The farmers Of Russell County are to be
heartily congratulated upon the very excel
lent crop prospects for this year. The re-
cent steady rains will insure good yields of
fall grain and all the indications point
toward an excellent corn crop. Oats are
reported to be doing nicely and on every
hand we hear the most encouraging re-
marks regarding the outlook.-R"sseU
(kdn.) Journal.
Farmers who practice 'mixed hus-
bandry" ar- generally more successful,
especially those remote from good markets,
than such who rely upon one or two crops,
or specialties, and then, instead Of growing
them, as they might easily do. purchase
several soil products for consumption in
their families. Indeed, we confidently be-
ieve that it would be for the pecuniary in

out the country to produce . greater vari

If It requires thousand bushels Of corn
to carry through the stock on l6O acres of
land, shall that corn be raised on twenty or
forty acresa On the answer to this will
depend largely the profits of the farm
Whether it is raised on twenty or forty
depends not half so much on the quality OF
the land as in the quality of the brains Of

Queer Things About Money.

A woman who bought an old-fashioned
bureau at a second hand store in Cincin-
natl discovered a secret drawer in 1t
which contained 81, 800 in gold and old
bank bills.
Money was so scarce in certain coun-
tics of Southwestern Texas during the
earlier part of the winter, that in some in
stances the skins of javelna hogs were
used as a circulating medium, and 'poss-
sum skins were frequently offered in
liquidation of grocery bills.
John Monroe,a a young man living with
his widowed sister in the northern part
of Georgia, was digging hole for po-
tatO bin in his cellar when his spade
broke open an earthen pot containing
81, 4S0 in gold. The coin had been buried
by his sisters husband during the war,
and subsequently forgotten.
\ young farmer in Des Moines County,
Ia., who had saved up 5000 in bank bills,
wrapped piece of paper around them
and stuck the roll up the chimney in his
bedroom for safe-keeping. One cold af-
ternoon his mother put stove in the
room and built a Tousing fire in it, and
when the young man returned to supper
only the charrcd remnants of the notes
could be found
Some months ago a lady living in But
Ter, Ga, through fear of the depredations
of tramps, put $40 in bank notes in q
pasteboard box and buried it in the yard
near the wood-pile. Recently she went
out to get it and found that box and bills
had been badly mutilated by wood lice,
She sent the notes 10 the banks which is
sued them for redemption.
The pet cat belonging to Mrs. Lucy
Cain, Of Hannibal, Mo, brought mouse
into the parlor recently, and with it a
small piece Of paper money. Mrs. Cain
thought nothing about the occurrence
until she discovered that a roll of bills
was missing from her bureau drawer
Then she put two and two together, and
began a vigorous search of the premises.
The missing bills were finally unearthed
in a corner of the cellar, where "a colony
Of mice had made a nest of them.

Pulrerizing Stones BY Air.

A new discovery in mechanics was in
vestigated recently at Montreal by Erastus
Wiman and a party of New Workers, who
came there for this special object. The
result accomplished by the discovery is
the pulverization or grinding of the
hardest substances by the action of air set
in motion resembling that of cyclone.
The air is confined in an iron chamber not
larger than an ordinary house furnace.
At test given in the paint factory of
McDougall, Logic & Co., where the ma
chine has been in operation for six months
past, nails, iron, Stag, and flint rock were
reduced to a powder, while the operation
was equally effective with phosphates,
mica, asbestos, rice hulls, and other pulpy
and soft substances.
The device is very inexpensive, and,
so far as the investigation showed, ac-
complishes results so important as to
point to revolution in pulverizing and
grinding operations in numerous depart
ments of the trade-Nelo York Sun.

An Orchestra Of ConYiets.

three hours in the public square, and all
the officials and business element of the

Another curious case of apparent sen
sation in a member of the body after it
had been amputated comes from Florida.
George w. Clay's arm was amputated,
put in box, and buried. Soon afterward
he began to complain that the fingers of
the buried hand were cramped and that
there was sand between them. His
physician and his sister had the box dug
up and opened, and found the fingers
cramped and the sand between, just as
George had said. They arranged the
arm properly and reburied it. Clay said
that while they were gone he felt an aw-
full pain in the amputated arm, and then
came sensation of great relief, and there
was no longer the old cramped sensation
IN the arm.
